I planted this little Tx. Everbearing last fall, It did not make it through the Winter (that's the bad news)
The (good news is it don't show any RKN)

Cecil,
so you can plant fig plants there then without worry to much about RKN you think ?
As you may know i do not know about the RKN much.

Yes Martin,

I have a nice Hardy Chicago that I have reserved that spot for!

And again, Thank YOU

Thanks George

I know the pictures aren't very good (could be the Camera Guy me)

Cecil, was your fig tree a LSU Texas Everbearing or a Texas Everbearing.  I have both and my LSU Texas Everbearing I thought was dead, but I see that it has a couple of leaves coming out on one of the limbs.

Hi Vern,

It was just a Heirloom Tx Everbearing, Not LSU

I scratched the bark, it was brown down past the soil line.

Hey Dan,

That might have been the cause of this one dying too!

I'm just glad it was something I can replace real easy.

Hi Cecil,

In the past, I've found dead roots do not show signs of RKN (i.e. when the roots die, the gals disappear.)  Usually, this takes less than 2 hours for the gals to be gone once the root is separated from the tree.  If you have had evidence of RKN in the hole before, they are probably still there.

The best way to check for RKN is on live roots.

Thanks James,

I guess maybe I'm not as lucky as I though I was!

We will see as time goes by, I do know, if my Fig Trees don't make it in-ground, then there's not going to be figs here, I don't have the energy or the will power for potted fig trees.

Stay well down there.

Cecil,
c'mon bud just put small pot on that there porch of yours and throw something over it in the nice Texas winters you have !!!
Best Health
